Such a fucking con is “investors in people”. My last company did it and changed nothing, people still didn’t do appraisals or train people.
It’s not for that, it’s so they can have the certificate to say that they have accreditation, which sounds great externally but actually means precisely fuck all.

Any phrase that contains the words “dog’s dick”, especially when used in conjunction with “lipstick” are fine by me.
get real what bride wears a nightie? in fact what partner wears a nightie?
ftfy

Agreed. That one can fuck right off and keep going.
